    UFID and Gatorlink (08-09)

    Your UFID (University of Florida ID Number), assigned to you by the University, is your primary identifier for all your UF records and transactions. It is printed on your Gator 1 ID card. You can also find out your UFID online at: www.it.ufl.edu/ufid.

    You will use your UFID to conduct UF business. For instance, you will use it in conjunction with your GatorLink ID and password to access my.UFL and ISIS. To get a GatorLink account, go to: www.gatorlink.ufl.edu.

    Your UFID vs. Your Social Security Number (SSN).

    Please note that when you apply for financial aid you will also be asked for your SSN. Your SSN does not function as an ID at UF; however, it is required by the federal government to process your financial aid application.
